A suspect was hospitalized Tuesday morning after an officer-involved shooting at a Fort Mill apartment complex during the execution of an Internet Crimes Against Children warrant.
According to the York County Sheriff’s Office, authorities were serving the warrant at the Sycamore Apartments off Springfield Parkway when the suspect allegedly fired shots at law enforcement officers.
Deputies returned fire, striking the suspect, who was transported to a hospital for treatment.
Officials confirmed that no law enforcement officers were injured during the incident.
The shooting led to a large police presence at the apartment complex and drew attention from nearby residents.
Authorities said the operation involved officers with the Multi-Jurisdictional Drug Enforcement Unit assisting with the execution of the warrant.
